I stayed here in Colorado for Thanksgiving and it wasn't bad. I actually spent the first weekend of our break in Idaho with my lovely and very pregnant cousin. We hit up the craft fair which make it feel much more like Thanksgiving. We also went to a couple of basketball games. Due to having excellent connections, we also were given the privileged of VIP passes. The VIP passes let us into the catered, buffet style dinner they were having at the games! Such luck we had!
Break was fairly relaxing other than that and I got some much needed rest. Unfortunately it feels like it wasn't long enough and I still didn't get my work done. Oh well, there is always tomorrow right?! I got to indulge my baking desires this weekend and made quite an array of goodies. Three pumpkin pies (all homemade), peanut butter blossoms, and chocolate chip cookies were the products of my baking craze. I also cooked up a yummy turkey breast and some mashed potatoes on Friday. I wanted leftovers and cold turkey to snack on!
Well, that is about all I have been doing. Lots of cooking, cleaning, and learning. Probably not as
much learning as needed but I've been trying.
Yummy peanut blossoms! These are my favorite Christmas cookie and I probably will be making many, many more!
The pretty flowers my mom and dad sent me for Thanksgiving! They came with lots of good fruit!
So I threw some things in a pan and I got a really good pork chop out of the deal. I just sauteed up some apples and onions with my pork chops, very very yummy!
